-1 *ifCond* and *selectIf*
the reason we have separate *logic-less* temperating is to remove logic out
of ui representation. this helper defeats whole purpose of having
handlebars.
different people have different opinions on this, see the discussion on
https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/issues/616 . I personally don't
like putting it in templates.

It is better to do the necessary logic in the js/jag file and use the built
in Helpers. is there any reason to not to do it this way?

+1 for *for*
but think it's there in new version anyway. is this one any different? if
not we should just update to new Handlebars instead.
